Right? Even the fan fiction could have had a happy ending….but no.
If Ukraine actually did assassinate Tucker, I’d only support them more.
Yeah this is like when Republicans say shit like "Democrats want to nationalize the oil industry!" To try and scare people but Im just over here like nah no way the dems are that cool.
I'd even donate some money to the program where they write your custom messages on the shells.
Yeah I'd definitely feel more compelled to send a donation - I'm not a fan of tipping culture, but doing the world a service like that would merit some kind of reward.
It wouldn’t have to be Ukraine, either… if the Nazi party took out tucker, I’ll never support their ideals, but good service is good service.
Waiting for the Musk comment about how awful it is Ukraine would try such a thing...
You should probably spend your time doing literally anything else.
More likely, he'd just reply to the tweet with 'interesting' and let his followers to the rest.
Basically why I hate Joe Rogan too. He'll have misinformation and lies on his show and he'll just go "I never thought of that". He pretends to be someone just asking questions but he's clearly spreading it on purpose
Well said about Rogan. I feel the same way. It's called JAQing off and he's an expert.

Great link! What exactly is rationalwiki.org?
It's a wiki created by skeptics. It can be snarky at times, but it's still quite useful.
